Cottage Cheese for Weight Loss
Cottage cheese is the star of weight-loss menus. The two main reasons are: firstly, its low calorie content (98 kcal per 100 g); and secondly, its high protein content (11 g per 100 g). Its protein contribution is important because protein-rich foods are very satiating, which is key to the success of any slimming diet.
Additionally, it is rich in calcium, which is perfect for caring for bones and joints, and low in saturated fats, which helps prevent heart-related diseases.
